District 8

Fred Brown

Fred Brown is currently in his fourth term as 8th District Councilmember. His focus includes the  “3Ps” that makes Lexington one of the best cities to live: Public Safety, Parks, and Paving (infrastructure). 

Brown graduated from the University of Kentucky, and for over 40 years, worked as a CPA.

The 8th District comprises several neighborhoods and public spaces, including Gainesway Park, River Hill Park, Hartland Park and Berry Hill Park. The district is also home to the Gainesway Community Center and the Tates Creek Golf Course & Aquatic Center.

Unique to the 8th District is the Tates Creek School campus, which has elementary, middle and high schools within walking distance of each other. The Academy for Leadership at Millcreek Elementary is also in the district. In the heart of the Gainesway Community is the East Sector Police Roll Call Center, the largest sector in Fayette County.
